2004 E55 AMG and 2003 C320 4Matic Miss my 993 Turbo above!!
Hello to everyone!! The BEAST is out of hibernation!!!

God it's been a long winter!!

I am officially taking the car out of the garage and driving her on a regular basis starting this week. All the salt is off the roads, the snow pack is down to inches and no snowstorms in the future. I sure have missed the board.

I can't go back and read 5 months of threads so if you guys can give me the low down over the winter that would be great. I do see that NATE still has the quickest time for the E55 without NOS and a few names have snuck in between him and I, congrats to all of you!!!!!

Any new "MUST HAVE TOYS" on the market??

Looking forward to a new year of dragging at NEW ENGLAND DRAGWAY this year.

April 1st should open the gates Roland

I hope to see you there, and whenever your interested in doing another track rental let me know. Compared to street night it seems to be the only way to go.

I actually did, well sort of. I bought my retirement home last month in Lely Resorts, a gated golf course community in Naples, FLA..... SPending a fair amount of time down there now that I have a home in Naples.

Was thinking of bringing/shipping the BEAST down there next winter.

Let me catch you up on everything that has happened until now...

Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it.

Good to have you back Roland!
